There's seating on the balcony in the ballroom but my mate found it hard work in the other venues.

Yes. Our problem exactly.The ballroom balcony seats were only available at some sets and closed for others.The advice from the staff for getting a seat in the other venues was 'ask someone to let you have their seat and explain that you are disabled' to which the seated people's reply was usually 'Fuck off, it's not MY problem'. Nice 'punk unity' in action.Asked the venue if we could bring in our OWN small, foldable chairs and were told we couldn't 'cause it would be a 'security risk'.

If none of that has improved then we still won't go.I can 'lump it' and put up with achy, arthritic legs for a while but Xa has MS and MUST have access to seating.We spent too much time having to go back to our hotel so she could sit down and rest.
